Determine power rating of an electric motor if it runs at 1440 rpm and line shaft transmits torque of 75 Nm. Assume Reduction ratio =1.6 Correct Answer 7.068kW

i = n / N 1.6 = 1440 / N N = 900 r.p.m P = (2 π x 1440 x 75) / 60 = 7068 W = 7.068 kW The power rating of an electric motor is 7.068 kW

A centrifugal pump which circulates a hot liquid metal at 500 degree Celsius is driven by a 3600 rpm electric motor. The motor is coupled to the pump impeller by a horizontal steel shaft of dia 25 mm. Let us assume the motor temperature as 60 degree Celsius with the ambient air at 25 degree Celsius, what length of shaft should be specified between the motor and the pump? It may be presumed that the thermal conductivity of the shaft material is 35W/m K and that the convective film coefficient between the steel shaft and the ambient air is 15.7W/square m K
An electric motor drives a machine through a speed reducing gear of ratio 9:1. The motor armature, with its shaft and gear wheel, has moment of inertia 0.6 kg-m2.
